Ahead of the start of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2025 season, defending champion Royal Challengers Bengaluru captain Smritimandana said she would focus on her team doing the basic rights to hold the title. I’ve said that. “It’s not just a team — the competition is great and growing. You saw the difference from the first season to the second season, so I can’t choose one team. We all have a good cricket. A great show for women’s cricket. We focus on doing the simplest things right and don’t think too far ahead.”
Last year’s runner-up, the Delhi Capitals are determined to take it a step further this season. Jemimah Rodrigues highlighted the importance of preparation and adaptability for the T20.
“This is T20 cricket – anything can happen and we can’t underestimate the team. The most important thing is to focus on our control. We prepare well and run well. I can’t – so I’ll leave it in more hands.
Inauguration season champions, Mumbai Indians, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, want to return the title to a city synonymous with the success of franchise cricket. “As cricketers, our main focus is playing good cricket and helping the team win. A lot of things happen from the field – we’re all fans of a particular team and they When we play, we feel a certain way. At the center, that’s not the problem.
“We don’t want to do anything extra or anything special, but staying in that moment helps us. In the first season, we did a lot right. The second season is challenging. That was. I remember this time. I play cricket from the same brand of cricket, the moment from the championship-winning season,” added Harmanpreet.
Up Warriorz is aiming for his first-ever final appearance, and Deepti Sharma believes home support will play a key role in the campaign.
“It’s a big deal for us to have a crowd of houses. It’s going to give us a lot of support. We’ve never reached the final, so this time we’re going to try and surpass that stage. I will,” she said.
Meanwhile, the Gujarat giant is keen to make an impact, and Harleen Deol is excited to play in familiar situations. “That will be a home condition for us as well. Last time we played in Bengaluru, so this is great.”
WPL 2025 will begin on February 14th with a clash between royal challengers Bengaluru and the Gujarat giants in Vadodara.
